    Ok this is what i have to do.
    1. First, make a backup copy of the boot.ini (optional)
    2. Control Panel >> System >> Advanced tab.
    3. Click the Settings button under "Startup and Recovery".
    4. Make sure that Windows XP is selected as the default operating system.
    5. Click the Edit button.
    6. Open your boot.ini file in Notepad
    7. Remove the Windows ME line from the [operating systems] section
    8. Change the number of seconds the boot menu shows to 0
    9. Save the file

    This is my boot.ini I cant see any Windows ME line but it gives me the option to load it when i boot up my pc.

    [boot loader]
    timeout=30
    default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
    [operating systems]
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
    C:\="Microsoft Windows"

    What should i delete.
    I got the info from: http://www.kayodeok.co.uk/weblog/200...dual_boot.html

    but i wouldn't hold out much hope for windows to keep booting after formatting the me drive. sounds like you have a nice mess going on...

    It says:
    Delete all non-data files from the c:\ drive except the following:
    c:\boot.ini
    c:\ntldr
    c:\ntdetect.com

    I cant find these. Where should they be, they are not just under C like it suggests
    ( i have searched)

    Is anyone running 9.2 then? Is it actually worth using, I found 9.1 pretty to look at and fairly user friendly but it had too many bugs for me to recommend it to anyone.
